Ceramics
Megan
is a widely exhibited and highly awarded ceramicist.
She received the Josephine Ulrick ceramic art award for excellence
for a 70 piece collection of vessels called 'After Waters Flow',
and is one of Australia's more successful artists. Her work has
featured in art competitions, festivals, magazines, books and is
in collections internationally.
She is known for her ability to throw and sculpt very large works.
Because of this she is actively sought for corporate installations.
Paintings
Megan
paints in an abstract style, with splashes of intense primary colours
against crisp whites and more sombre, dark hues. Some of her more
recent works feature her ceramics and give a sense of balance, cleanliness
and simplicity. Megan's works are highly suitable for modern interior
spaces, and works can be commissioned to suit specific room sizes
and schemes.
